Israel has been carrying out airstrikes in Gaza following the October 7 attacks by Palestinian militant group, Hamas on Israel, which killed no fewer than 1,400 people.
Jordan on Wednesday said it would "immediately" recall its ambassador to Israel in protest against Israel’s bombardment of Gaza.
Israel has been carrying out airstrikes in Gaza following the October 7 attacks by Palestinian militant group, Hamas on Israel, which killed no fewer than 1,400 people.
However, the UN and some countries including Jordan, Turkey, and Russia have accused Israel of killing civilians and called for a ceasefire.
"Jordanian Foreign Minister ,Ayman Safadi, decided to immediately recall Jordan's ambassador to Israel," the foreign ministry said as reported by Barron’s which quoted AFP.
The foreign ministry added that the move was "to condemn the Israeli war that is killing innocent people in Gaza".
SaharaReporters earlier reported that the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) had accused Israel of turning Gaza into a graveyard for thousands of children.
It reiterated its call for a humanitarian ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war.
UNICEF spokesman, James Elder, told reporters on Tuesday in Geneva that the conflict was killing thousands of kids in Gaza and putting many more at risk from the violence and a water crisis.
“Gaza has become a graveyard for thousands of children. It’s a living hell for everyone else,” Elder said and noted that more than 3,450 children in the Palestinian enclave had already been killed and that the death toll was rising daily.
